LETTER: Some politicians display lack of respect for women

What we see in all of the "sex scandals" rocking the political theater right now all boils down to this: a complete lack of respect for women. If Anthony Weiner truly respected his wife and, for that matter, every woman that he has "sexted," he wouldn't have done it.

The same is true for every other person who cheats on their spouse, be they man or woman; they truly don't have any respect for their spouse. If they did, they wouldn't do it.

I have a 31-year-old single-parent daughter and, a few months ago when I mentioned to her something about her not dating anyone in particular right now, she told me that she has realized that men her age, for the most part, have not been taught to respect their mothers. And if they don't respect their mother they sure won't respect her.

We have to get back to teaching our kids respect for authority, respect for the other sex and respect for themselves. If we don't this, society is doomed for complete failure, in my opinion.
